2020 Monarcha Rosé

This wine is gorgeous on all counts, from the eye-catching frosted etched bottle to the striking shade of jewel-like garnet Syrah within it. Fresh field strawberries lead off, with additional flavors of Jolly Rancher watermelon and crisp green melon throughout. There's also some nice, steely minerality to accentuate the big splash of finishing acidity. It makes a great starter wine - especially during the appetizer course - and it pairs perfectly with prosciutto, which really brings out the wine's fruit component and, perhaps, a suggestive hint of sweetness.
